Let A be any language. Define DROP-OUT(A)to be the language containing all strings that can be obtained by removing one symbol from a string in A. Thus,DROP-OUT(A)={xz|xyzAwherex,z*,y} . Show that the class of regular languages is closed under the DROP-OUT operation. Give both a proof by picture and a more formal proof by construction as in Theorem 1.47.

Short Answer

The class of regular languages is closed under DROP_OUToperation.

Step by step solution

01

To Operation the DROP_ OUT

A is any language and DROP-OUT(A)={xz|xyzAwherex,z*,y}.

We have to prove that the class of the regular languages closed under the DROP_OUT operation.

If A is a regular language, then DROP-OUT(A)is also regular language.

We have to take that A is regular and we have to prove that the DROP-OUT(A)is regular.

Since A is a regular language, it must be recognized by a DFA.

Let M=Q,,,q0,Fbe the DFA that recognizes A.

02

To Construct the NFA

Now we will construct the NFA N=Q',{},',q0',F'that recognizes DROP-OUT(A).

There are two copies of Machine M.

Copy 1:Copy 1 corresponds to the state of having 鈥榥ot yet skipped a symbol鈥

Copy 2:Copy 2 corresponds to the state of having 鈥渁lready skipped a symbol鈥.

(i) Proof by picture: -

N=Q',{},',q0',F'

Q={q,b|qQ,b{0,1}}= set of states

q0'=start state

=q0,0

F'=set of final states

={(q,1|qF}.

未'is gives as follows:

localid="1663243041084" '((a,b),a)={((q,a),b)}鈭赌qQ,b{0,1},a

This means that both the copy1 and copy2 of the machineMdo exactly as the original machine does on every symbol a of the alphabet

localid="1663243051646" '((q,0),)={(q^,1)a,(q,a)=q^}

Also at every stage, the machine has the option to skip a character. The only accepting sates are in copy 2. This means, the machine cannot accept a string without skipping a character.

03

To Proof the given length of the string

The formal proof is given by induction on the length of the string.

An appropriate inductive hypothesis is to assume that, for any string w of length k,

The machine M stays in the copy -1 if it has not yet skipped a symbol.

i.e. '*((q0,0),)=(q1,0)iff(q0,)=q1

The machine M jumps to the copy-2 if there is some symbol a that is skipped.

i.e. '*((q0,0),)=(q1,1)if(q0,1a2)=q1 .

So, in both (i) and (ii) we constructed and NFAN that recognizes the language role="math" localid="1663242954164" DROP-OUT(A).

Thus DROP-OUT(A)is regular.

Hence class of regular languages is closed under DROP-OUT(A)operation.

A homomorphism is a function f:-*from one alphabet to strings over another alphabet. We can extend f to operate on strings by defining:f(w)=f(w1)f(w2)f(wn),wherew=w1w2wnandeachwi.

We further extend fto operate on languages by defining f(A)={f(w)|wA},for any language A.

a. Show, by giving a formal construction, that the class of regular languages is closed under homomorphism. In other words, given a DFA Mthat recognizes Band a homomorphism f, construct a finite automaton role="math" localid="1660800566802" M0that recognizes f(B).Consider the machine role="math" localid="1660800575641" M0that you constructed. Is it a DFA in every case?

b. Show, by giving an example, that the class of non-regular languages is not closed under homomorphism.

For languages A and B let the perfect shuffle of A and B be the language

{|=a1b1...akbk,wherea1...akAandb1...bkB,eachai,bi}.

Show that the class of regular languages is closed under perfect shuffle.
